Clemson is second at +260, Ohio State is third at +500 and Notre Dame is an incredibly distant fourth at +1600.
More or less, the oddsmakers think Alabama and Clemson are clearly the two best teams in the playoff.

Having said that, you’d be insane to count out Ohio State. We don’t know the status of Justin Fields’ thumb, but the Buckeyes are as great as anyone when they’re rolling.
That’s just a fact, and they’ll get a crack at Clemson in the semi-finals.

As for Notre Dame, nobody is taking them seriously. They absolutely deserved to be in over Texas A&M, but nobody expects the game against Alabama to even be close.
They should just be happy to be in the playoff!
